They have all the best qualities

it is not much of a drawback,
for their children visit our public

make up to the community for this

this prospect in view, all Asiatic i'm

BY carrying out my suggestions,
the poor people will also no longer
be forced, to take up small places at
a 5-years lease, only to find that,
after the expiration of this term,
they have the choice either to pay
more than double the amount of
rent for a renewal of their lease, or
leave the premises and all the fruits
of their labor and earrings, which
they had invested therein behind

KNIFE AND FORK.

A recent law publication contains
an amusing report of case recently
decided in the United States. The
case was this: A man was travelling
on first class railroad car, and at
one of his meals at table on the car,
was Gas usual with him, and also
many otherwise we'll bred people)
shovelling his food into his mouth
with the table knife, and with the
edge of the knife in the direction of
of his mouth, and when food was
being dumped in the mouth with the
edge near the corner OF the mouth,
the car gave sudden jerk and
drove the knife into the corner of
his mouth and made the orifce con-
siderably longer and larger than
dame nature had made il, and in
ficting painful wound and causing
him great expense for doctors, sur
geons, medicines, etc., and impair
ment of his functions of mastcation
and deglutition, etc, and such dis
fgurement of his personal pulchri-
tude as greatly diminished bis
chances for matrimony (being a
bachelor), and also caused him loss
of employment and lucre (being a
commercial traveller); and he
brought suit against the rail road
company for damages, (SlO,00O)
for all these things, and the facts
we're all admitted by the company
upon the trial, and the only defence
was that he should not have put the
knife into or near his mouth, and
that u table knife should only be
used at tables, as q divide, and that
the food should be conveyed to the
mouth by the fork; and that the
use of the knife in conveying the
food to tue mouth was such a car
dinal breach of good manners, and
such violation of good breeding,
and such a degree of contributary
negligence, as to exonerate the COM
pany from all liability IN the preml-
ses, and the court so instructed the
jury, and in charging the jury, the
trial judge remarked, that any per-
son who knew so little of good man
ners and good breeding, and of the
proper and legitimate uses of table
knives and forks, and who used the
knife so vulgarly and in such dan
gerous proximity to the lips and
mouth as the plaintiff did, was moi
entitled to damages, nor even SYM
pathy if he got cut every time he so
used it; and the jury accordingly
very promptly found for the defend
ant, and the plaintiff took nothing
by his motion and was mulcted in
costs. nj. L.

less pain In the head sides, and back,
he may be sure his bowels are con-
stipated, and his liver sluggish. To
remedy this unhappy state of things
there is nothing like q good cathartic
pill. 1t will act like charm by stl-
mulating the liver into doing its du-
ty, and Kidding the digestive organs
of the accumulated poisonous matter.
But the good pill does not grippe
and pain us, neither does ii make US
sick and miserable for q few hours
or whole day. 1t acts on the
entire glandular system at the same
time, else the after-effects of the
pill will be worse than the disease
itself. The gripping caused by most
pills is the result of irritating drugs
which they contain, Such pills are
harmful, and should never be used.
They sometimes even produce he
morrhoids. Without having any
particular desire TO praise one pill
above another, we may, nevertheless,
name Mother Seigel's Pills, manu-
featured by the well-known house
of A. j. White, Limited, 80, Far
rington Road, London, and now
sold by all chemists and medicine
vendors, as the only one we know
of that actually possesses every de-
sirable quality. They remove the
pressure upon the brain, correct the
liver, and cause the bowels to act
with ease and regularity. They
never grippe or produce the slightest
sickness of the stomach, or any other
unpleasant feeling or symptom.
Neither do they induce further con-
stipation, as nearly all other pills
do. As a further and browning
merit, Mother Seigel's Pills are
covered with a tasteless and harm
less coating, which causes them to
resemble pearls, thus rendering
them as pleasant to the palate as
they are effective in curing disease.
If you have severe cold and are
threatened with fever, with pains in
the head, back, and limbs, one or two
doses will break up the cold and pre-
vent the fever. A coated tongue, with
a brackish taste in the mouth is
caused by foul matter in the sto-
mach. A dose of Seigeps Pills will
effect a speedy cure. Often-times
partially decayed food in the sto-
mach and bowels produces sickness,
nausea, &C. Cleanse the bowels
with dose of these pills, and good
health will follow.
Unlike many kinds of pills, they
do not make you feel worse before
you are better. They are, without
doubt, the best family physic ever
discovered. They remove all OBJ
structions to the natural functions
in either sex without any unpleasant
effects. 1892

now PILLS ARE MADE.

The Custom of taking medicine in
the form of pills dates far back in
history. The object is to enable us
to swallow easily in a condensed
form disagreeable and nauseous, but
very useful, drugs. 10 what vast
dimensions pill-taking has grown
may be imagined when we say that
in England alone about 1000, 900,
900 1.-TWO thousand million) pills are
consumed every year. In early
days pills were made slowly by hand,
as the demand was comparatively
small. To-day they are produced
with infinitely greater rapidity by
machines especially contrived for
the purpose, and with greater ac-
curacy, too, in the proportions OF the
various ingredients employed.
No form of medication can be
better than a pill, provided only it
is intelligently prepared. But right
here occurs the difficulty. Easy as
it may seem to make a pill, or a
million of them, there are really very
few pills that can be honestly COM
mended for popular use. Most of
them either understood or overshoot
the mark. AS every body takes pills
Of some kind, it may be well to men,

A CHlNAWOMAN MURDERED.

Early last evening u Chinese
woman, wife of musician in the
Chinese Theater, was stabbed to
death at her residence, a short dis
lance from the theater named. The
first suspicion of any crime was
aroused by wild shrieks from the
woman. When the police arrived
and entered the house, the woman
was found on the floor, in her bed
room, dead. She was lying 10
pool of blood which flowed from
eight ugly gashes. Four of the
wounds were in the region of the
abdomen, three on the face, and one
back of the right ear. The last
stab mentioned severed the carotied
artery. The assassin had fed be-
fore the arrival of tile police, leaving
behind blood-stained jack-knive.
The Marshal Immediately offered
5000 reward for the capture of the
murderer. This amount was in
creased TO $500, 5000 being offered
by the Chinese Society and 500 by
Chip Wing Tong Co. The remains
of the murdered woman were taken
to the Station House.
The woman was of middle age.
She and her husband, as far as
known, lived peaceful, quiet life.
The husband was at the Chinese
Theater at the time of the murder
and when apprised of it became
almost frantic with grief.
THE sEATcH.
Marshal Kaulukou, assisted by
Deputy-Marshal Pahia and squad
of policemen, arrived at the scene of
the crime few minutes after the
first alarm. The Marshal having
gwen instructions to his men, sent
them off to fulfiss them, while he
went to the Chinese Theater. At
the theater the Marshal had the
people, about six hundred, come out
single file, facing a large light.
Diligent watch was kept up all
night, and at daylight this morning,
Chinaman was arrested on suspi-
cion. The circumstantial and direct
evidence collected are sufficiently
strong to encourage the belief that
the right man has been secured.
THE INQUEST.
An inquest was held on the body
of the murdered woman this morn
ing.
The following jury was empan-
eled: f. H. Wolters, c. Winam, w.
II. Place, Hong Tuon, w. McCand-
less, and Wong Leong. The finding
of the jury was, that the woman,
Leong Ytz by name, came to her
death by violence, at the hands of
some person unknown.
THE THEORY.
The theory advanced by China
men is, in substance, as follows:
The murderer, who is supposed to
have been acquainted with the
woman, and knowing that her hus-
band was way, called on her under
some pretense and made vulgar
proposition. She is thought to have
rejected him and to have threatened
to tell her husband of the insult.
Such an offense among the Chinese,
frequently means pistols and coffee.
The murderer who had got himself
in box and fearing the result,
committed the foul deed.
The man now held on suspicion,
will be brought before the Court to-
morrow or next day; in the mean
time the Marshal will collect all
possible evidence.
